Underwater Bubble show coming to the Fox this Friday Oct 13



The Underwater Bubble Show is a modern day fairy tale from Latvia, inspired by Cirque du Soleil. It's the story of a modern man, stressed out by a world that's moving too fast, who discovers that he can enjoy life again after he goes on a journey to Bubblelandia.

This is a show without dialogue. The story is told through music, dancers, acrobats, jugglers, bubble and sand artists, mimes and more. This visually spectacular show incorporates the latest in stage technology: lasers, low ground smoke and flying foam to simulate waves and the underwater atmosphere. There isn't one drop of water in the show! The biggest attraction of the show is the spectacular use of soap bubbles in multiple artistic ways.

The Underwater Bubble Show is the first in the new Fox Family Series of theatrical events geared for the whole family to enjoy. The series is designed to introduce children to great theatrical events at The Fox, so that new generations will enjoy its wonderful Art Deco atmosphere and superb acoustics. The other two shows in the Fox Family Series are: The Peking Acrobats on January 24, 2018 and Rockin' Road to Dublin on March 10, 2018, both at the Fox Theater.

The album produced the iconic hit 'Achy Breaky Heart,' a song that brought him super stardom and even garnered its own signature line dance that became a worldwide craze. The title track on the album, 'Some Gave All,' earned him the Bob Hope Award for Excellence in Entertainment. Cyrus has gone on to release 13 critically acclaimed albums, with his latest, Set the Record Straight, coming out on Nov. 10.
